Are you interested in or do you know someone else who would be ideal in being a part of the National Leadership Council or the Executive Board next year?

We are currently in the discernment process for NCYAMA leadership roles - and welcome all those gifted in and passionate for the work of young adult ministry to apply.

In the NCYAMA organization, leadership is divided into two govering bodies:

The National Leadership Council: a representative body of liaisons between NCYAMA and the fourteen geographic Catholic episcopal regions as well as between NCYAMA and other ministerial fields (such as youth, campus, adult faith, family, and vocations ministries) and national organizations (including La Red and the National Black Catholic Congress). The primary focus of the Council is the advancement of the field of young adult ministry across the country.

The Executive Board: a smaller governing body consisting of the NCYAMA president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and the marketing and development coordinators who work in partnership with the Executive Director, the Episcopal Moderator, and the USCCB Liaison. The focus of the Board is the oversight and management of NCYAMA as a national organization.
